Geyser Peak 2022 Sauvignon Blanc California ($14)

This brand elevated reasonably-priced Sauvignon Blanc back in the '90s and '00s. Then, sadly, the brand was sold as part of a transaction involving many brands, and for the next twenty years the brand was kicked around to a series of owners until it pretty much bottomed-out in 2020, when Geyer Peak was acquired by Quintessential Wines, the current owner. It's nice to see the brand back in the marketplace these days, and the Sauvignon Blanc still delivers good value for an under $15 price tag. The 2022 vintage has ripe apple, pink grapefruit, and lime leaf notes delivered in a fresh, crisp style. (87 Points)
